Don't know why everyone has Chavez 4th and 5th on their lists...he was a punch or 2 away from knocking the number 1 guy out regardless of how 2nd best he was on the night.
I got Chavez @6 because of the circumstances. He's coming off a loss, while GGG/Macklin/Quillin are coming off victories. He gets bumped down and they get bumped up. He's still Ring #4, but he no longer has his WBC title and isn't ranked by any of the sanctioning bodies.
Undefeated fighters are always ranked high and overrated only time will tell if I'm right or u are , as a Brit I hope I'm wrong but I don't think I will be . Good luck to him though

To be honest I'm not sure who I'd replace him with , as I said I think barker and bj Saunders would probley beat him but Im not sure there top 10 . Put it this way I'd still pick jermaine Taylor over Murray
Murray's current rankings: Ring #8, WBC #4, WBA #3, WBO #2. He's a former champion at the domestic level. He had a draw with Sturm, who I had ranked #2 before he lost to Geale. His next fight will be for a shot at the interim-WBA title, which will put him in line to fight Golovkin. I think having him ranked at 10 makes sense.
Barker got beat by Martinez, and has been inactive due to injuries. Taylor's last 3 fights @160 have been against irrelevant opposition, and he got floored by one of them. He will never be a top MW again, dude is shot-to-pieces.

To everyone that's put Martin Murray in there top 10 your overrating him on the basis of the strum fight . Strum has been on the slide for a wile and was beat by maklin although not officially and geale . Apart from him who has he beat ? Darren barker is better and probley billy joe Saunders and that's just domestically
His name is "Sturm", not "Strum"
I put Murray @10, so who would you replace him with?
